Summer 2015: FIBA games of Utah Jazz players

Since it's the offseason and nothing's happening anyways, I found a small interview with Tibor in our local newspaper this morning. It's also online, so I ran it through google translate. Horrible as always, but I could figure out from context what it's supposed to mean when erroneous translations occured.
It's about NBA goals and expectations, National team and the upcoming European Championship and a couple of off topic questions.
I hope there're German bakers in the city of Utah ;)

Athletic trainers are not personal trainers or strength coaches. They help with injuries. They are they guys who run out when someone get hurt, do the taping and wraps and work behind the scenes working with physicians to help with rehabbing from injuries. If they sent a athletic trainer with him it is because of the ankle injury and/or another injury.

While their major is injury prevention, they know every facet of the human body and how it works. That's their knowledge base. They would know how to improve anything. Including strength training and rehab.

Having worked in this industry for almost 10 years I understand they have knowledge of other stuff but at this level they tend to leave the strength training to the expert strength coaches and performance coaches. But there are people who are both strength coaches and athletic trainers and serve both roles. But more often they stick to their roles and expertise. I'm sure he can and will help Exum with his workouts but the reason he would have gone with him is primarily the injury help.

Hometown team had him in its youth roster last years, they wanted to sign him this summer to a contract in combination with an education(He's 17), kid wanted to go pro and passed on the offer. Talented at hooping though, maybe he'll make it.

Just saw a picture of him. Not entirely French or Russian obviously.

Gotta love that German dark bread! There is actually this German bakery pretty close to ESA: https://www.vosen.com/. I've always wanted to try it out, but I'm pretty much only there after it's closed (6 pm M-F, earlier on Saturday).

It's nice that he said that he couldn't have asked for a better NBA situation than coming to the Jazz.

I also liked his answer to "when does being 2.18 meters get on your nerves?"
--> "Pretty much all the time, when people come up to me and say Wow, you're really tall. I think to myself, Yes, I've noticed that."

Basically an athletic trainer is a personal trainer that actually had to go to school and learn about the body rather than a month long course.

Athletic trainer is a different job entirely. Athletic trainer is a sports medicine position not a fitness oriented job like a strength and conditioning coach which is somewhat to a personal trainer.

I'm aware of what it is. My sister has an athletic trainer license along with her doctorate in physical therapy.

No never, ever since he has been drafted by OKC, they have always told him not to play for the Tall Blacks.
